Abstract

A new ultrashort optical pulse generator, the “modified Fabry-Perot electrooptical modulator” is proposed. From theoretical analysis it is derived that this method makes it possible to convert cw light to subpicosecond high peak optical pulses with near 100% energy conversion efficiency regardless of laser linewidth.
